Why does my garbage disposal make a humming noise but not spin?

A humming disposal that won’t spin usually means something is stuck inside or the power to the outlet is the issue. Our plumbers frequently remove lodged items and restore operation, and we also fix outlet problems that mimic disposal failure. If repair isn’t cost-effective, we give an upfront estimate for replacement and perform a professional install. Members of Lucky’s Comfort Club get priority scheduling and discounts. We serve Petaluma, San Rafael, and nearby areas.
